Best of the semester -1

     I was a hardworking athlete and once won a championship in a race, but everything changed owing to a terrible accident, which occurred on my way home after the race.  I was hit by a truck and passed out immediately on account of shedding too much blood and breaking one of my legs.  Although I was sent to the hospital at once, I lost my consciousness for at least one month.  After I came to myself, I felt depressed on everything, for I found I can’t do anything well with only one legs.  Moreover, I had negative attitude toward my life, trying to kill myself.  One day, however, while I was fooling around in a wheel chair in the hospital, there was an elder man, who lost one of his legs, trying his best to walk with a stick.  Although he fell down again and again, he never gave up.  A thought suddenly came to my mind that I should practice walking instead of keeping feeling depressed day after day, and then I made up my mind to practice step by step and take part in Olympic Games of physical disabilities five years later.  Finally, my efforts paid back and I won a championship again.  As the proverb goes, “Where there is a will, there is a way.”  If I tried, there must be some opportunities for me to succeed.
